Yes and it's more-or-less "closing the barn door after the horse gets out." Last I read the Emerald Ash Borers were shipped to NY from Michigan years ago by a nursery stock dealer. I'm all for trying to prevent such invasions but it's too little too late. Just one more insipid regulation to deal with. It's very easy to write out a form and fill it full of fiction (it proves nothing and certainly not "origin").
Last year when I was cutting a bunch of dead white birches down in Indian Lake NY (central Adirondacks). A bunch of campers came by asking if they could buy wood. I told them they could take all they wanted for free. Then they asked for a "certificate of origin" and I couldn't help them. No electricity, no computer, no printer, no forms. So they were afraid to take it to their camp a 1/4 mile down the road. Instead they went to a local Stewarts Shop and bought a bunch of plastic-wrapped firewood bundles for a high price. Seems a little absurd to me but I don't have an answer to all the water and forest invasions and infestations.
Here in Michigan I own forest on both sides of the big Mac Bridge that New Yorkers built. I can't legally bring any wood back and forth. No "permits." That would of made sense years back before the invasion of the Ash Borers. Now they are all over the place on both sides of the Mac Bridge. What difference does it make now?
